'lhe bud was received by Dr. Morangue before the war, and from this comes all the kid glove oranges in Florida. The tree can he Peen in his grove, which is quite cel ebrated on that aocount. A Montgomery special says: Ship ments of cattle from Georgia aud thi section still continue. The Montgoml ery shippers for the New Orleans mar kot couldn't get. transportation, the Georgians being ahead cf them.

Av'n Savannah, GIa., Subscrip,tions are on foot now to raise funds for the erecc ti m of a splendid military academy on the lots of Forsyth Park. The amount of $10,000 is already obtained. Thme academy will be leased by Maj.!Burgess, Principal of the Savannah Military Academy. It is thought the work will be started in a few weeks, and the buil ding will be completed in time for the October session. EL:vi:N hundredl head of cattle, timl iug twenty-one cars, were shipped from Albany, Ga., to Texas Saturday after noon. The animals were very poor gen erally and suffered intensely. Several killed theme.elves in their frantic efforts to escape while being driven con board tne train. Several of t." cars were double-decked for the calves and smaller stock. Unless they improve greatly on the prarie grass in Texas, the venture will hardly be a profitable one to the consignees. Mnis.

But as shc is well advanced in years niow, and as her ease must next go to the Uniitedl States supreme court, it is to be feared that, the claim will have to be collected, if collected at all, by the next generation of heirs.

Ftan Commissioner Pierce, of Penn sylvania, thinks that there is a great deal of money wasted by the Govern ment trying to stook with salmon and bass streanm which, by reason of the clearing away of the forests and the cultivation of the land, have become en tirely unfit for such fish, their waters having become warni and muddy. He shys the re-stocking of inch streams is "misdirected labor and expenditure wh ich is almost a total loss.'' It is prob able that Mr. Pierce is right. Bass and salmon do not like muddy water. Carp do not ohiect to it, and hence carp cul, i ure is the most profitable. Krao, the 3ilsing Iiik.

A "it of Advice that Diay be Followed av Advntutie. To become a usband is as merious a 'natter to a man as it is for a woman to 1ecome a wife. Marriage is no child's play_; it brings added care, trial, per plexity, vexation, and it reqluire's a great deal of happiness which legitimately springs out of it to make the balanee ill its favor. Very few people live hap pily in marriage, and yot this is not be cause unhappiness is germano to this re lation,;but because those who enter it do not know, first, how to get married, and, seconid, how to live married happily. You have already made your choice - wisely, I am houtntd to believc'. These qutalities of ciniraettr tlieh have at tracted you to choose as you have, should make your love grow daily while you live together. As to the second point : If you wish to live in harnouius union with your wifo, start out with that avowed recog nition of the fact that she is your oou pamlion and co-partner. Marriage usually makes the wife neither of these. Tn lan v instances, site sees less of her hus hand titum before she married him. HIe comies, he goes, he reads, thinks, works, ami under the stimulus of businesa brings all his powers and faculties to tho surface, and is developed thereby---not tlWiays svmeltrieally, bit vit;(r alsly not :lwayVs bartiniOin y, lte with in - ('.'t".111; 1'")u.''. M itritt m11't do itt tsUally slrive'l 111) or put on a look of premature age. but women frequently do, and it is plain to me why they do. MNfar'ried women are shut up in houses and their chief care is for things that have no inspiring influences. Their tin is ta ken up inl meeting the physi cal n(ecessit its of their families--cookin washing dishes, keeping the house in order, sew ing, receiving company- -not ne of which has ill it a tendeney even to culture and elevation. Married wc m1eni aire devotec. to the house, and this m1eanis a life of a.xation and pett iness. It ives no soit of stimulus to lie sH>irit.

Treat your wifu exactly as -e,ourself would liko to be treated if you had to live under hier eircumstances. and you will not go far wrong. )o not entertain the silly notioi that baecaite shae i-s of a diffrelt gt'nder from your own tinat she is there fore diflereit in her wants, feelings, qualitis and powers. lPo not he the vict im of any social puoicy.

One of the accidents so common in the lumber regions recently visited the camp at Kettle Crook, Penn. One of the men was watching the slide where the log came down to see that they kept the track when Pust above him a swiftly moving log jumped the track striking him and crushing him to death instantly. He was taken up and carried to camp on a hastily-improvised bier made of pine branches, and was laid out in one of the girl's rooms, and the men talked over what should be done with him. "He came from Maine, and hain't got rio relatives near here, as far I know," said the boss, "and I don't even know what part of the State he came from. kll we can do is to bury him and adver Eiso for his family, to send his wages away." So it was decided to bury the man in the woods with a great pino tree, under which he hrad many a time eaten his din ner to mark the place. A man was sent to 6ormania for a coflln and clumsy but tender hands made his last bed and por rormed the necessary services for the lead comrade. The next day was set epart for the funeral, and one of the mn, who had been a Methodist ex bIorter, acted as chief in performing the last sad rites, which wore singularly sol M'm and impressive, as everything of a religious nature is away in the silent woods, where Nature adds an element of solemnity unknown in the most gorgeous cathedral. The sermon was short, and the speaker, in an impressive way, corn mented on the danger of the life in the woods and the special need for prepara tion for sudden death. Speaking of the deceased, he said: "He was not ready to die, and I would wish you to leave off many of his faults. But there was much in him that was noble and manly, and these qualities we will all do well to remember and emu late. You cannot forgot his courago in risking his life to savo a fellow on the jam last spring, when the mad stream was hurling the logs around him, and death seemed hidden in the timber whero his crushed comrade was strug gling for life. And you all remember his brave notion on the landing, only a month ago, by which another life Was saved. We all have reason to admir(i and love him, and, rough as he was, I believe the future will deal kindlier with him than with many who profess more and do less." When he spoke of the lives the man had saved, and painted a picture of his rude and bravely honest life, and in ten der words spoke of his future life, the strong men broko down, and ono, whose life had been saved, sobbed aloud. There wore no dry eyes among them, and every man was a friend and a mourner. As they carried him to his resting-place under the old pine tree anid 'acli throw a handful of earth into the grave, tears moisked tihe earth. A Stock Experle tce. Joaquin Miller relates his :.perience in WPall street as follows: I had seen Western Union stock go down about eighteen points and so bought one hun dred. It fell fEve lower and I took a hun dred more. Five points lower, I took another, and so on till I was getting alarmied. I thought of a prominent stoek huyer wiho was under somne obliga tionis to me, or at least a truo friend, and so stepped actross from my hotel to see him. He was kind, qutiet, and pmry as a kitten, almost lahyfuil, andi soon began to poinit out on hits maps thme line of his new Atlantic cable. Hie himself opened the subject of telegraph s. '1'lio cccasioni wats, opportn. I1 handediM him a co rtill cato of purchaseii of 'Western Union and Hkedl im wlhat to do, as I was already ona the edge of my margin. HIo looked at thme paper with a sweet and inrnocent si~'aipine, as5 if Hia.iig: " Only) to think thiat aniy man would touch the worthless "'I' mi sio sorry you have bought this stuiY. My telegraph i a the other line,"' lie sig lhed, at lengthi. '"Yes; I know. Bunt I ,bonght it be mI t thotught it cheap.' "It's i over'li no,Mr. Miller.'' "'A nd vi:ll he cheaper."' "Well, we"-lookinmg at his ison ''have niot ia share ofI it, it ought tor ho a grat deal cheaper.'' "Thlien I shalil sel Itwice the amioin t. I hold and hiedge. Thiankil you, and good night."' And the noext mnoring I didi sell-sell right arnd left-for tIre wholel botttom siemned to be falling out of W'estern Union. It kept on tumlinitg, and by niooni I wats even. By one o'clock I was nmot only even, but alnost rich. I was a ticher man tihan I had over been bieforo. I remained a rich mian about thirty-five iniiits. The tide began to set against mec. WVesterni Union bounded up with a rapidity thastfairly made me dizzy antd b y the time the hammer fell in the Stock Btoard [ literally liad noct car fare left. H aving plenty oif leisure after that, I wrote down thmo foregoing conversation, andiu have copied it exactly. I have not sieen my den 'iendit, the great stock hoelder, since. But I find thtat at thu time lie said lie had not a share of West 'irn Union, lie hind iabout two hundred thouisanid shares, antd was ptieking it up as frast na ho could knock it down. hionor ? One of' Josh BllHings's StorIes. Josh Billings a few days ago told a re potter of the Poughkoepsio Eage~ the following story: " One bleak day this winter, wvhen a bliniding sinow storm was in progress, he alighted irom an elevated railway train at Twenty-tird street and Sixth avenue, New York. At the foot of the stairs stood a man thinly clad, without any overcoat, and holding up two now load p2ineils. As each person passed lie im plored themi to buy his pencils, sayinag lie had had nothing lo cat for a day, that he was in need of immediate assistance. Seven mcen passed him, and Josh was the eighth, and ho bought thre pencils and piasedt into tihe Fifth Avenue Hotel. WVhile thtere lie got thinkhinmg the matter over, anid air he liad some business at the (hilsey House he thought the would try anmd sell some lead penedsII onl his way up. lie went to the news stand and b'oughlt t wo pencils, wrappledl his coat about hmim, pulled hris slouched biat down over his eyes, and strt'tal. lHe 'malted on the corner of T wenty-feim thia sreot and Broad way, and stopped'i al pedestrian with 'Please buy miy two pencils for ten cents each ; I am starving. I have had noth ing to eat i r twenuty-fouir hours,' etc, The man pushed him aside gruffy, ex claimng, ' I enn buy three for a quarter dlownr the strcot.' tlI'bree times more hre stoippetd passers-hiy, each timro receiving a rebuff. Finally he arrived in tire bar room of the Oilsey House, and their played the (lodge on a man wire was at the bar. The man throw him a quairtor with, 'Taike that, old man ; I don't want any peoncila,' The bartender almost imm-inediitely rcongii'.d Jo ih who called the miraner bank ad tum th ,m... ti
